Taken from Stone Sour’s fantastic sophomore album, Come What(ever) May, Through Glass is a fantastic piece of music. Written by Corey Taylor about his frustration at the current music scene:

“I remember exactly where I was. It was 2004 and I was on tour with Slipknot. I was sitting in a European hotel room watching a music video channel, seeing act after act after act of this insane, innocuous, plastic music. They were plastic, bubbly, gossamer-thin groups where it was really more about the clothes they wore and the length of their cheekbones than it was about the content of the song they were singing.
It really made me mad. I was like, is this it? Have we just gone full circle? Did the singer/songwriter revolution never happen? Is it just the same drivel from the same replicate over and over again? ‘Through Glass’ is really a very angry song. It’s me basically calling ‘bullshit’ on pretty much everyone involved with the ‘American Idol’-type shows. It has its place, but when you’re basically cornering the market and making it very hard for anyone who actually writes their own music to get ahead, then it’s wrong and that’s really why I wrote this song.”

To celebrate the 15th anniversary of Youthanasia, À Tout le Monde is the fourth track to be added to the Ultimate Playlist. It is probably the most beautiful and heartfelt song Dave Mustaine has ever written. Words fail to describe this song… so I’ll let this nice little High Def video of the current line up playing it on the upcoming Blood In The Water DVD
